The Jelly Alien Will Save You!
Episode 56
* * *
“The silence is getting long.”
Susan tapped her arm with her index finger while crossing her arms.
“I thought they’d make a deal right away.”
Shane rubbed his chin while sinking deep into his chair.
“They’re gauging us. Whether we know more than we’re letting on… It seems like they’re deliberately making us anxious with silence. They have the upper hand for now.”
“Smart.”
Shane nodded at Susan’s words.
“That aside, you made too much of a fuss.”
Susan glanced at him sideways.
“They seemed to already know about me anyway.”
Shane said glumly.
The silence continued. He sighed and raised both hands.
It was a gesture of surrender.
“We’re definitely getting more anxious. They say the one who likes more always loses.”
He typed.
[Master?]
[Do you not need me anymore? ʅ(。◔︎‸◔︎。)ʃ]
【I’m thinking.】
“They say they’re thinking.”
“This is dangerous.”
He couldn’t be abandoned here. Shane threw away his pride and clung on.
[Please don’t abandon me… أ‿أ]
[If you need it, I’ll get more information for you. ಥ﹏ಥ]
Only then did the Pink Jelly grin.
【Really? You’re a useful earthling.】
[Then…]
[Please give me love too, Master. (。>﹏【。)]</p】
Love? The boy who asked sharply was frowning intensely beyond the screen.
【What do you want?】
[Could I stay by your side, alien sir?]
[Of course I mean this Hamster Drone.]
[I thought our distance might be important if I’m to give you information right when you need it! ◝(⁰▿⁰)◜]
【You don’t need priority access to the Vending Machine’s next new products?】
[Haha!]
[I suppose you could see it that way O(≧∇≦)O]
“Sharp.”
Shane said with a smile.
Susan knew that expression. That expression meant he was going crazy because he liked whatever the alien did more and more.
‘Seeing him show his feelings like that, he’ll keep being the weaker party.’
He had exactly that expression when he shot an expensive rocket and it failed. He was prepared to take any amount of loss.
Susan clicked her tongue and shook her head.
【30 minutes a day. I’ll give you time to stay here. Turn off the drone otherwise.】
[Only 30 minutes?]
【You can’t keep it on long because of the battery anyway. This kind of device would take quite a while to charge too. Is it solar powered?】
“…”
“…”
Shane and Susan looked at each other and lost their words.
【I’m agreeing to this much because I know you’re not a bad earthling. If you show any suspicious signs, this deal ends immediately, so be careful.】
“They don’t seem like an ordinary mutant.”
Shane grinned at Susan’s words.
“My favorite type.”
[Understood, Master! I must simply follow your will.]
【Good. Let’s trade information by pricing its value each time. How about it?】
[Great! ☆゚・:.。.☆†_(゚▽゚)β]
They like it. Susan narrowed her eyes.
Then Shane, whose lips had gone slack from smiling so much, gave an order.
“Susan. Investigate Yellow Hazmat Suit. Big or small, anything.”
“Yes, understood. CEO.”
Susan, having received orders, hurried away.
Even during this, Shane looked at the pink alien beyond the screen as if he couldn’t take his eyes away for even a moment.
He covered his mouth with his hand and let out a hollow laugh.
‘There really was a Jelly Alien?’
He picked up his phone and searched for 【Cute Cute! Planet Mon!】.
It was a game developed and distributed by ‘Trust Games’, a subsidiary of ‘Planet Dynamics’.
I thought it was odd they made a healing game that didn’t suit them.
‘They really didn’t make it for nothing.’

The next morning.
I introduced the new family member I’d brought in last night to everyone.
“This is Shane Heart!”
The Hamster held up a tablet and greeted them.
[Hello! Nice to meet you! Earthling family members!]
Kwon Bora who had just woken up and Gong Ju Won who had come out after washing opened their mouths.
They weren’t surprised that the Hamster was communicating through a tablet…
“…Shane Heart?”
“You’re not THE Shane Heart from ‘Revaion Biotech’, are you?”
They seemed to recognize Shane Heart.
“Famous indeed.”
I looked down at the Hamster.
[I am a global celebrity after all. ☆٩(。•ω【。)و]</p】
“…Really?”
Gong Ju Won looked at me with suspicious eyes.
“That’s right. CEO of ‘Revaion Biotech’.”
The air instantly froze.
“Did you kidnap him, Jelly?!”
“What do you take me for!”
Gong Ju Won frowned slightly.
“Xion…?”
No matter how many times I say I’m an alien, they won’t believe it.
“Yesterday we talked about needing another information source. So I brought him.”
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Gong Ju Won scratched his head vigorously, and Kwon Bora hung her head low.
A strange silence flowed between Gong Ju Won with his exceptionally strong loyalty and Older Sister who had suspected the government.
“…”
“…”
It was the same when we talked about Yellow Hazmat Suit belonging to ‘Planet Dynamics’.
The two were surprised for a moment, then continued their silence again.
I rolled my eyes around, gauging both of their reactions.
When I glanced at Chae Heon, he shook his head. It meant I shouldn’t say anything.
That’s when it happened.
“…Um.”
Kwon Bora cautiously spoke up and fidgeted with my hand.
Could she be trying to apologize first? I hoped so….
I squeezed Older Sister’s hand tightly as if giving her strength. She gripped my hand firmly too.
“…I’m sorry. Yesterday I spoke too hastily. Captain Gong.”
Captain Gong Ju Won, who received the sudden apology, quickly shook his head.
“No, not at all!”
“I got excited yesterday… I’ve been reflecting on it a lot.”
Kwon Bora bowed her head deeply.
“I’m sorry.”
Captain Gong Ju Won looked flustered and waved both arms as he spoke.
“It’s really fine. If… if it’s okay with you, would you like to go prepare a meal together? I laid some eggs.”
“What?”
Kwon Bora’s mouth fell open at the mention of laying eggs.
‘Oh, he laid them again.’
Seeing how casually he could say that, Captain Gong Ju Won was truly an amazing person.
Just then, Hamster’s tablet, which had been fluttering around in flight, flashed.
[Do the Earthlings in this place lay eggs?]
Hmm. Too lazy to explain, I nodded my head, and Shane sent back a trembling emoticon.
I left Shane to his strange misunderstanding.
